摘要:

质量大于8个太阳质量的恒星的稀有性和深深嵌入的性质限制了我们对它们形成的理解。以前的工作表明,补充光谱能量分布与干涉和成像数据可以探测大量年轻恒星物体(MYSO)的星周环境。然而,对单一对象的复杂研究通常使用不同的分析方法。因此,这些研究的结果无法直接比较。这项工作的目的是获得在~0.01”尺度、在0.1”尺度和作为一个整体的MYSO样本的物理特征,这使我们能够比较源的特征。我们将相同的多尺度方法和分析应用于MYSO样本。高分辨率干涉数据,近衍射极限成像数据,和多波长光谱能量分布相结合。通过对盘-出流-包层系统的2.5维辐射转移模型的模拟观测值与我们的观测值进行拟合,对MYSO的性质进行了约束。我们发现,所有的MYSO的观测值可以复制的模型与磁盘流出信封的几何形状,类似于I类几何与低质量的原恒星。在我们的样本中,信封和其中的空腔的特征非常相似。另一方面,这些圆盘似乎在不同的物体之间有所不同,特别是在我们解释为复杂结构和内部孔的证据方面。这与观测到的低质量年轻恒星天体的形态相当。一个很强的相关性被发现之间的亮度的中央MYSO和过渡盘状的内孔的MYSO的大小,这意味着光蒸发或存在的二进制同伴可能是原因。

英文摘要:

The rarity and deeply embedded nature of stars with masses larger than 8 solar masses has limited our understanding of their formation. Previous work has shown that complementing spectral energy distributions with interferometric and imaging data can probe the circumstellar environments of massive young stellar objects (MYSOs) well. However, complex studies of single objects often use different approaches in their analysis. Therefore the results of these studies cannot be directly compared. This work aims to obtain the physical characteristics of a sample of MYSOs at ~0.01" scales, at 0.1" scales, and as a whole, which enables us to compare the characteristics of the sources. We apply the same multi-scale method and analysis to a sample of MYSOs. High-resolution interferometric data, near-diffraction-limited imaging data, and a multi-wavelength spectral energy distribution are combined. By fitting simulated observables derived from 2.5D radiative transfer models of disk-outflow-envelope systems to our observations, the properties of the MYSOs are constrained. We find that the observables of all the MYSOs can be reproduced by models with disk-outflow-envelope geometries, analogous to the Class I geometry associated with low-mass protostars. The characteristics of the envelopes and the cavities within them are very similar across our sample. On the other hand, the disks seem to differ between the objects, in particular with regards to what we interpret as evidence of complex structures and inner holes. This is comparable to the morphologies observed for low-mass young stellar objects. A strong correlation is found between the luminosity of the central MYSO and the size of the transition disk-like inner hole for the MYSOs, implying that photoevaporation or the presence of binary companions may be the cause.
